2012 Heliamphora . . .

[BigBella]

Here are the earliest signs of germination of a batch of Heliamphora seed -- some of which were sown in either mid September or early October. The media, in each case, was 2:3 Knudsen-C with 5.4 µM NAA (1 mg/L). Other species and varieties are soon to follow.

Once again: there's always room for jello . . .

Heliamphora minor var. pilosa -- 6 November

Is pilosa impossible to come by?
I saw a pic of one recently and REALLY like the look of it. Wouldn't mind adding one to my small heli collection one day.

 

[Av8tor1]

Butch, as you well know -- the secret of transmutation of base metals to gold involves the liberal use of unicorn tears; that very same esoteric substance that is said to fund Obamacare; and, sadly, I had to put down that Tasmanian Tiger; just couldn't deal with hairballs the size of plums; and he vomited in both the grail (it stains; go figure) and upon the lost Rembrandt.

Those clever dogs playing cards never ceased to amaze me; such detail and rich chiaroscuro . . .

Big Bella, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your home on the germination day of your pilosa. And may the first born be a hairy child

My understanding is that Rafalca tears fund obamacare David.

You evil, evil man! What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully?
"If a man such you should make enemies, they would become my enemies -- and they would fear you . . ."

Leave the heli. Take the cannolis....

Here is a brief update of some of the 2012 vials. The first two images (left to right) represent the germination of Heliamphora folliculata (Murosipian); and the last, Heliamphora minor var. pilosa, just beginning to form callus (undifferentiated tissue) growth . . .

Heliamphora sp. 20 November

Very nice! Is the pilosa from seed or root meristem?

Thanks -- and the pilosa is from seed; so too all of the 2012 cultures on this thread . . .

Some of the 2012 seed were from my own cultivated plants; and others were from various exchanges with other growers, both in the US and abroad . . .
